Here is my situation. Welcome your comments.
Returned using AP in Nov 07. H-1B is good till 9/2009. My understanding of the Cronin memo is that I am still on H-1b till 2009. But I keep hearing different interpretations even by lawyers. I talked with two lawyers from the firm I retained on different occasions. One said no, one needs to change to EAD after using AP. The other, the owner of the firm, said yes, you are in H-1B status, and do nothing. But her website did say staying on EAD is the safetest bet after suing AP.
I am still with the same employer. My case is straight foward. To ease the concern of H-1B status. I am thinking of switching to EAD. I already have it renewed till 8/09.
So what do you think? Do you see any probelms to change now after so many days since entering with AP? Thanks.
